Revealed! This is what frustrated Pogba the most Against Burnley

Paul Pogba scores from the spot against Burnley at Old Trafford

Paul Pogba was left frustrated as Manchester United produced too little, too late against Burnley, with the midfielder vowing to learn from the first hiccup under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.

The Norwegian could scarcely have wished for a better start to life in the Old Trafford hotseat, having kicked off his time in caretaker charge with eight straight wins in all competitions.

But a Premier League record-breaking seventh successive victory at the start of a managerial reign proved beyond Solskjaer on Tuesday evening as United finally stuttered.

A trying first half was followed by a frantic second period, with Ashley Barnes putting the Reds behind for the first time under their former striker before Chris Wood’s 81st-minute effort appeared to wrap up Burnley’s first Old Trafford win since 1962.

But United dug deep to keep their unbeaten run going, with Pogba scoring from the spot before Victor Lindelof snatched a 2-2 draw in stoppage time, but the overriding feeling was far from positive.

“We are disappointed with ourselves because we react and the way that we played when we conceded the second goal – we should have started like that and the game would be different,” Pogba said.

“But now it is done, you have to learn from your mistakes and next time I think we need to start the game differently. That’s it.”

Despite the last-gasp draw, United’s players trudged off the pitch feeling as if they had lost.
